Swakane
« on: November 27, 2011, 02:15:08 PM »
Went up there friday morning for the day and well we didnt see many bucks we only saw 3 and all the deer were in the cashmere area. First we hit Swakane Cyn Rd and went all the way to the top didnt see one, but lots of hunters. then we hit the Nahahum Cyn Rd and get to where it says primitive road no warning signs and there was a close gate :dunno: so we turned around and i told my dad to stop and i noticed deer. Well picked up the binos and there was 2 nice shooters but then some old lady came down yelling at us and she was with her husband and the husband didnt care and the guy told us that the deer were on there land and that we cant hunt them. Thats our journey. Did anyone else see bucks or get one?

No I didn't. But that's rifle though I'm talking archery. Nice buck though.

Took a good friend archery hunting yesterday. He was going after a nice 26"  4x4  and a 32" 5x5 ruined his stalk. Lots of deer. So fun being out there.

 I have a friend that took a 3x3 with eye guards today. I was supposed to go but I get tired of all the people over there so I backed out and stayed home to hunt Blackies.

My usual spot was slow and crouded. Saw only 2 shooters a day. usually see around 8 to 10. Thats shooters not just bucks.

That unit is WAY overcrowded. They need to end that season for late archers. Too many wetside people merging east . Its a zoo up there.

I hate to say it but i agree. i hunt up there every year and its getting stupid. Make it permit and keep most of the rif raf out. The problem is like the entiat and all the other units, we get to permits while others drive up there and shoot the deer. POACHERS. Lock the roads off in the winter. Thats for everybody. And i mean Everbody. Then the populations might get better.

Let's just fence the whole state and everyone can leave and we can all walk in to hunt. :chuckle:
